Frank Vincent Zappa, známy ako Frank Zappa bol americký hudobník, kapelník, hudobný skladateľ, producent, gitarista a filmár. Jeho práca bola charakteristická nekonformným prístupom, voľnými improvizáciami, experimentovaním so zvukmi, hudobnou virtuozitou a satirickým pohľadom na americkú kultúru. Vo svojej viac ako 30 ročnej kariére sa venoval viacerým hudobným žánrom. Komponoval rockovú, popovú hudbu, džez, či jazz fusion, orchestrálne diela modernej klasickej hudby, rockovej opery, práce v štýle musique concrète, absurdity a príkreho, satirického humoru. Je producentom väčšiny z viac ako 60 albumov, ktoré vydal ako sólový hudobník, alebo so svojou skupinou The Mothers of Invention. Je považovaný za jedného z najviac inovatívnych a štýlovo rôznorodých rockových hudobníkov svojej generácie. Frank Zappa režíroval aj celovečerné filmy a hudobné videá a bol autorom grafických návrhov obalov hudobných albumov.
